how do I do this, I got Tein S-tecs already installed and the car is sitting on 18x7.5 +45 off set wrapped in kumo 245/40/18 and I am about to finish off the suspension with adj coilovers. so how would i roll the rear fender? I can tell it already needs to be done becuase when i have a full car of people or even 2-3 people the car dropps about 1-2 inches putting the wheels in the wheel whell jsut enough to bother me that the fender is going to cut the tires.

All you need is a wooden baseball bat and a hammer!

Don't bother... with what you've got (7.5" wheels +45mm offset) you're not going to rub ... ever. What you think will happen ... won't. Heck my 275s on 18x9.5s +45mm offset don't rub FHS! Still if you want either buy the tool ~$300 or go to a shop where they do it correctly and not break/crack your paint in the process. Don't use a bat and a hammer ever unless you don't care about your car.

7.5 +45 is definitely NOT going to rub.

most tyre/wheel shops can do it......
whoever suggested a baseball bat and a hammer should knock himself out.

LOL on the homerun :cwm27:

typically you'd only need to flatten the inward lip extension except in the most extreme situations and as others said, you're not even close with that combo
